The first season (all 8 episodes) was awesome and I was hooked.and then something happened at about season 3, the writing changed drastically. What drew me to HAK was the fact that it was a small company with great customer service (I remember being on the phone with people who you could never speak with now, on Easter regarding an issue for example, and they went out of their way to make things right, The stories were unique, puzzles were difficult, and they boxe you received were for lack of a better word, "gory" at times.that's what made it great. I joined HAK in 2017 and was in one of the original cohort groups that started back when you were assigned a group. ![]() It is not the same HAK I signed up for in 2017 high.) The only problem was that we all overthought the solution. It was great fun, and I recommend it to teachers as well. Since I hadn't done the mystery, either, I was helping them along the way, but let them lead the "investigation". I really like (and the kids loved) that there was actual physical evidence and hidden pieces and clues. They kind of started to lose steam around the middle, but the new boxes with new evidence kept them entertained. For this particular box set, it took my class 8 weeks (8x90 minutes). ![]() AND my other english classes are now asking if they can do a mystery, too. ![]() My class enjoyed it so much I ordered another mystery for them as well as some other shorter mysteries to use in the future. (*Note: I do not live in the US) So I ordered the box set and had it delivered, and let me tell you, that was the quickest delivery of my life EVER!!! It arrived within a week! (Yes, it was expensive.) The price was worth it for 8 weeks of enjoyment from my class, and no need for planning lessons, as we started where we left off and followed the instructions on the card and had a lot of class discussion. I purchased Class of 98 because my high level esl students were interested in doing a mystery game.
